Ohara:
Ever since Bartholomew Kuma, the other Shichibukai, made an appearance, discussions inside the art store have been escalating to record levels. However, since the disclosure of the fact that the famous scientist Dr. Vegapunk is responsible for turning Kuma into a cyborg, or the so-called PACIFISTA, confusion appeared in the eyes of most readers.
"At first Franky... And now Bartholomew Kuma... How can a person live after turning into a machine"
"Can it be described as a living being in the first place?"
"Strange... why would someone as powerful as Kuma allow the world government to turn him into a cold weapon in their hands?"
"Does Dr. Vegapunk have a hand in this?"
Many questions have been raised about this topic, particularly regarding Dr. Vegapunk, who appeared as part of the background for the manga debut.
Readers are puzzled about how a person can live after turning into a machine and whether they can still be described as living beings.
They are also curious as to why someone as powerful as Kuma would allow the World Government to turn him into a cold weapon in their hands, and whether Dr. Vegapunk played a role in this.
...
..
As Kuma explains the background of his transformation into a cyborg in his hand, Vegapunk exclaims, "Is this me? No, definitely this is me! This is my body! Even though my face didn't show, that doesn't mean I can't recognize my body."
Vegapunk realizes, "Don't tell me that things would have taken this path which is fraught with sacrifices if it weren't for the existence of the manga... Kuma." For a moment, his eyes become wet.
Seeing that, Clover and Brook sighed.
"You shouldn't take everything that appeared in the manga seriously... I see that Bartholomew Kuma is still alive like humans-" Clover advises Vegapunk.
"It's just a matter of time, he's doomed to die in two years at the most," However, Vegapunk clarifies.
After all, the person most familiar with the Kuma situation in the manga is himself. The title 'the world 500 years ahead of its time' is not just an empty title; it is actually real.
"This means that I am responsible for killing him, even if it was of his own free will," Vegapunk sighs sadly before returning to read the manga.
"I don't think that, Vegapunk-san..." Brook mutters silently, not quite understanding the situation yet, but feeling Vegapunk's sadness.
"... Zoro wants to sacrifice himself for the sake of his captain and crew, what a wonderful man he is."
Soon, he adjusts his mood and returns to reading the manga as well.
"One Piece" Events:
"... I know my head is not worth much at the moment... But eventually, I will become the world's number one swordsman, I'd say exchanging my life for his is an equally good deal!!!"
In his life so far Zoro has not reached a dead end, but today he has already arrived, everything depends on the decision of the invincible enemy in front of him.
"If you have such a great ambition... Then by dying for him... How will you ever be satisfied?"
The question that Kuma asked at this moment was logical.
But the answer given by Zoro is more logical:
"Aside from that... There is already no other way to save the crew...!!! If I can't even protect my captain's dream, then whatever ambition I have is nothing but just talk!"
"Luffy... Must be the man who becomes the Pirate King!!!"
Suddenly Sanji, who had not fainted due to the previous explosion, intervened:
"Hold on a minute, you jerk."
"What are you going to do if you die...!! What happened to your dream... Idiot!!"
Sanji continue, "Oi... You big blob... Just ignore this marimo swordsman... If you must kill somebody, then just take my life...!!!"
"I know the marines don't give a damn about me... But soon enough the man who will be most feared by the marines will be me. Black Leg Sanji."
"Come at once! Kill me! I've already realized that this day will come. Let the flower of death bloom in me!!!"
Without turning back, Sanji talked with Zoro:
"Oi... Tell everyone... To take care... And that you'll have to find yourselves another chef...!!"
But he was surprised by a painful feeling in his left waist where Zoro hit him violently to temporarily drive him away, "Bastard..." Sanji falls to the ground.
"I hope you will keep your promise after I die..." Zoro said to Kuma.
In the tavern of the art store,
Sora placed her hand over her mouth as she witnessed the current events, which appeared to be leading toward a tragic end for the crew. "Even you, Sanji..." she whispered her heart heavy with emotion.
Observing Sanji's willingness to sacrifice his life to save his crewmates only added to the complexity of her feelings.
For some reason, she felt an immense sense of pride in Sanji's actions. As she heard comments from other readers praising Sanji's magnanimity and heroism, as well as Zoro's, she couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
However, her happiness was short-lived as sadness soon enveloped her. The more she read the manga, the more she felt like this fictional character was her own child.
Suddenly, an inexplicable feeling of fullness bloomed in her stomach, as if the consciousness of the world was trying to highlight a mysterious fact. "What is this feeling of fullness in my stomach? It can't be...?" she thought to herself.
After all, she had left her husband's bed only half an hour earlier, a man who had stolen the threads of fate from Vinsmoke Judge.
...
Wano Country:
Ringo prefecture, home of Daimyo:
"He looks a lot like me."
While drinking sake, Shimotsuki Ushimaru said with a satisfied smile.
Next to him, a White Wolf spoke reverently and asked, "Excuse me for being rude... but, could it be that Zoro-dono is... your future son, Daimyo-sama?"
Shimotsuki Ushimaru chuckled and replied, "Haha! You're funny, Onimaru."
Ever since this little wolf accidentally ate a devil fruit, it seemed that he gained the ability to speak and his intelligence increased to be similar to that of humans. He also acquired the ability to transform into a big Monk yokai, just like what happened with Chopper.
"Maybe it could be her son~ who knows... Zoro really looks like 'him' in almost everything. When I first saw him, I thought he was my brother. Besides, the attitude of the ancestor's corpse towards him made me feel for sure that he is connected to us by blood."
"You mean, Furiko-sama!" exclaimed Onimaru.
Shimotsuki Ushimaru suggested, "Roronoa Zoro should be Shimotsuki Zoro..."
...
Shimotsuki Town:
In a small house nestled between two rivers, far from the hustle and bustle of the town, a poignant scene unfolded. The room was dimly lit by the flickering flames of a candle, and the only sounds that could be heard were the soft murmurs of the family members present.
Inside, a tall woman who resembled Toki, with dark blue hair and a green flower tucked behind her ear, gazed at a young man with tearful eyes.
Despite being in her peak thirties, the woman looked youthful and beautiful, though her health condition seemed to have taken a toll on her, making her face appear pale.
As tears streamed down her face, she uttered, "Zoro-kun..." Her voice trembled with emotion as she watched her grandson's sacrifice, the most brilliant and heart-wrenching thing she had ever seen.
The woman's gaze shifted to the young man sitting before her, who was reading manga with tears in his eyes.
"In addition to his uncle, he looks like his grandfather, Pin-san is also very much... his grandfather was once just like him, an unquenchable sword spirit, a real man's pride, predatory eyes, and unfailing loyalty, all these qualities made me adore your father..." the woman spoke once again, her voice filled with memories of her husband, Pin-san.
The beautiful woman looked at her son who appeared to be 18 years old, with black hair and three earrings similar to those of Zoro, or maybe they were the same ones.
The young man was reading manga with tears in his eyes, repeating, "This is my son... He is really my son." His eyes were red, and his nose was running, wetting his clothes. Nevertheless, his mother and wife felt a great love for this young man.
"I will do it, I will become stronger for him. Don't worry, Mom, and you too, Terra. I will save the family from the fate of destruction, and I will save the poor child from the fate of living without a family!"
Seeing the scene of Zoro bowing his head instead of his captain only strengthened his determination to become worthy of being his father.
"My son will undoubtedly become the greatest swordsman in the world."
"Bft..." On the other side, a young woman with green hair and eyes resembling Zoro's laughed. Her eyes were also red from crying earlier, but her husband's words made her very happy.
"Terra, Arashi... make sure to teach Zoro well in the future. I don't want him to become reckless like that damn Ushimaru!"
